- The 2025 Honda Accord gains a new SE trim, replacing EX.
- All trims have more standard equipment.
- Pricing starts at $29,390.
The 2025 Honda Accord is here. There’s a new trim level called SE, and everything is a bit more expensive than last year. Though you do get a little bit more for the money.
As the replacement for the long-running EX trim, the Accord SE has big shoes to fill. Notching just above the base-model LX and equipped with the non-hybrid 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, Honda bills it as a sporty Accord with plenty of black trim for the doors, mirrors, B-pillars, and black 17-inch wheels. Inside, it has a few more luxuries than the LX, with heated front seats, a 10-way power driver’s seat, and a moonroof.
All Accord trims are between $400 and $760 more compared to last year’s sedan. Rear air conditioning vents and more USB-C charging ports are now standard across the line. The LX starts at $29,390, squeaking in below the $30,000 threshold with the turbo engine, 17-inch wheels, and Honda Sensing driver assists all standard. Replacing the EX, the SE is priced at $31,655. The least expensive hybrid is the Accord Sport at $34,750.
Here’s a full breakdown of pricing. All figures include Honda’s $1,095 destination charge.
Trim | 2025 Price | 2024 Price | Difference |
Accord LX | $29,390 | $28,990 | +$400 |
Accord SE/EX | $31,655 | $31,005 | +$650 |
Accord Sport Hybrid | $34,750 | $33,990 | +$760 |
Accord EX-L Hybrid | $36,035 | $35,635 | +$400 |
Accord Sport-L Hybrid | $36,470 | $35,970 | +$500 |
Accord Touring Hybrid | $40,395 | $39,985 | +$410 |
Going hybrid gets you the naturally aspirated 2.0-liter four-cylinder with Honda’s dual-motor system. Horsepower is only marginally better than the turbo (204 versus 192) but torque is way up at 247 pound-feet. In our experience, the electric assist makes the Accord far better at daily commutes than the numbers suggest, providing plenty of low- and mid-range grunt. Fuel economy isn’t bad either, especially for the Accord EX-L, which gets a combined rating of 48 mpg.
The hybrid Accord is also your only path to the larger 12.3-inch infotainment screen and other features like leather seats, wireless phone charging, Google Built-In, and much more. Honda says over 50 percent of Accord sales are for hybrid trims.
